It’s a bit weird and it doesn’t have to do with other atrocious stuff on that website, but I noticed this a lot.
Cats are basically the official animals of reddit, even more so than the doggos, they are literally everywhere and it’s getting annoying, it’s not just reddit either, but most of the social media, cat literally does nothing, looks at camera and they post it. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t have anything against cats, but why cats 24/7, why not some other animals like bears, monkes, crows, wolves, whales, dolphins, foxes, lizards etc? We have rodents here for example.
Idk what’s the reason for this but maybe I’m a bit biased because I like other animals more, but I’d like to know why is this, I’m interested.
Cats purrs emit similar wavelengths as babies cries. So they cause us to take notice of them and want to care for them. They have evolved to make us love them.
That is actually cat meows, but the same point still stands. They’ve gamed the system.
also the frequency (hz) of their purr has also been shown to promote bone growth and heal fractures!
Ya it’s magic, giant cats and little ones purr at the same frequency. The bone-healing thesis needs some more research but its really damn cool if it turns out to be true.
